Race 'Purity' Law Passed in Georgia
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 2.—A bill intending to prevent the marriage of any white person in the state of Georgia to one whose blood has African strain has been passed in the last state legislature and signed by Governor L. G. Hardman.
This has been a law in Georgia for many years, but Representative Jans Dauwage of the state stated that the old measure needed "new teeth" to keep mulattoes from coming over the color line.
Enforcement of the law is placed in the state's vital statistics bureau. It requires that the state health officer prepare printed forms for registration of every citizen, "whereupon shall be given the racial composition of the population as such as tolerable so as to show in what generation such admixture occurred."
When any person shall apply for a marriage license the clerk is required to refer to these registration forms for information on the necessary forms are not on file in his county he must write to the state registrar, and if not in the state he must write for information to the applicant in which the applicant was born.
In no case is he given authority to issue the license until this information is at hand. After ten days, unless he has proof of the racial purity of both applicants, he can refuse the
The bill is intended to har misegenation in Georgia in theory only, some claim. To substantiate that the bill will only protect white men who have "Colored families on the side." Concubinage, which is almost an established institution throughout Georgia, will flourish under this new measure, of which it is the most important. "It leaves women of our Race at the mercy of white men, who by their present status under the state laws, are helpless to defend themselves and to take on or their offsprings," declared a prominent Georgian. "White men who are prominently known in Atlanta have reared families by Colored women and the father's name, yet the child has absolutely no claim to the estate of his father in case of death. The Davis bill will make a greater gap. It will also deprive a similar law a year ago, but state health authorities declare that marriages have decreased to an alarming degree. Rather than have their racial differences in marriage, they fear discussion a great number of white couples marry in bordering states and come back to Virginia to live," said a state health officer. They fear that the state will not be able to invest in the family tree and cause them much embarrassment."
Papa Starts Fight, but Mamma Wins With Bat

DOCTOR UNDER
$1,000 BOND
His Charm Fails on Insane Man
[PRESTON NEWS SERVICE]
Raleigh, N. C. Sept. 2—Willie Franks, alleged "conjure doctor," was bound over to the superior court Wednesday by Judge Arendell under a $1,000 bond. The presiding judge fixed the man's bail as high as the law would allow, stating that he feared the man was one of a ring of easy talking "all-cure doctors" which is thought to be operating throughout North Carolina.
All evidence in the city courts at the hearing was against Franks, but he stoutly denied the charges against him. The woman complained that Franks had come to her house and obtained $55 under promise of curing her husband, who is now in the insane asylum at Goldsboro. She pleaded the court that she not believe that the man could cure her husband, but thought that he could get him out of the asylum by home hook or crook.
She pleaded that she paid him in two installments and when no results came the last time she talked with the doctor she had him arrested.
Franks said that he came to Raleigh Wilson, and while he did not work he supported himself and wife by means of a pension from the government. Franks rides in an expensive automobile, and the police once on the fireline roars of a gang of "doctors" operating out of Wilson.

MAN KILLED BY FALL FROM MOVING TRAIN
Daughter Files Suit Against Railroad
Des Moines, Iowa, Sept. 2.—Through Attorneys A. E. Patterson and S. Joe Brown a suit for $25,000 damages was filed last week in the district court of Polk county against the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad by Mrs. Helen Hayes, Kansas City, Mo., daughter of Wyatt L. Tolson of that city, who lost his life last May while riding as a passenger on one of its trains.
Mr. Tolson was a mechanic in the employ of the railroad and at the time of his death he was en route to his home at 2008 Askew Ave. Kansas City, from Chicago, Ill.
The suit is based on the allegations of his death through that Mr. Tolson met his death through the negligence of some member of the train crew upon which he was riding. The coroner's jury, impaneled to inquire into his death, returned a verdict related to the death of the good man. Mr. Tolson was 63 years old and had been an employee of the company for 30 years. He was said to be wealthy.
Suspect Perjury
Operatives of this agency unearthied much evidence that was not presented to the coroner's jury. It was learned that at Conterville, town, to secure refreshments. They allege further that the deceased climbed aboard the train again, and while standing in the train car, a sandwich, was thrown to his death through the trap door of the car, which had been carelessly left open by a member of the train crew.

MRS. MALONE OPENS NEW PORO SCHOOL
Public Invited to Join in Celebration
BY EVANGELINE ROBERTS
With the opening of the magnificent new branch of Poro college at 4415 South parkway, the wonderful business ability, force and personality of Mira Annie Malone, founder of the famous establishment located at St Louis Mo., is acclaimed.
Her philanthropies and unselfish service to her Race has extended as her success has increased. If she has been the ingrate, the one hand she has also met the loyalty and encouragement of a grateful people on the other, so that she goes forward with renewed support.
To honor her as well as to enjoy the eight of real achievement, hundreds took part in the program Aug. 26, upon which notables from all parts of the city and country will applaud.
The doors were open all day, with the musical and literary program beginning at p. m. Among those who attended the Bishon A. J. Carey, Mrs. Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Attorney Homer Phillips of St. Louis, Mo. Miss May Bolcher of Indianapolis, Ind. Senator Adelbert out-of-town guests present included the Misses Nugent, Louisville, KY; Dr. and Mrs. William Gordon, Birmingham, Mrs. Carl Diton, and Mrs. Lockett, Philadelphia, Pa.; Dr. and Mrs. Breedlove, St. Louis, Mrs. Ella Brooks, demonstrator from the home office, begin work at once.

The beautiful beauty salon where in eight luxuriously equipped booths the dames and gentlemen sit, relax, expert and refined service that is the brand of Poro. On the top floor are rest rooms and a cozy dining service with a chic dessert dispersion over a cup of tea and a sandwich.
A Desire to Serve
"This is just another step in trying to serve the people of Chicago better, and it isn't yet what I like to give them. Mrs. Malone said, "I want to emphasize the necessity of giving the best and most thorough kind of service to everybody, the kind of service you would like to receive is my own. I am judged by the creator and promoter." The creator and promoter is quite the most modern and lavish of its kind of which our Race can boost is delightfully unaffected by her good fortune. She indicates kindness and good humor.
The school which opened three years ago, in the lower floor of the resilient building, long been inadequate to accommodate its clientele. Large number of students have graduated from classes that are established in their own business. A few weeks ago a beautiful school was opened in Louisville, Ky. There are many students living in the large cities. In the course of time a Poro college will be a part of every city needing one. The happy event marked another milestone in the life of a noble woman who is a credit and a joy to any race.

Death Switch Controversy May Save Condemned Man
Tallahassee, Fl., Sept. 2.—Jim Williams of Putnam county will probably have his sentence of death commuted to life imprisonment as a result of the controversy as to whether Williams a few weeks ago was strapped in the electric chair, only to be taken out when no one would throw the electric switch to take his life. Gov. John W. Martin said last week that commutation to the board of pardons when it convenes next month.
Williams was sentenced to be electrocuted on a charge of murdering a man. After a bitter fight through his friends, the charge was set. On the day he was executed the Williams was taken to the death-room and strapped in the chair to be executed. The superintendent declined to as as executioner and the judge of Punjab was granted, and since then Fred H. Davis, attorney-general, has rendered an opinion that the superintendent of the penitentiary is executioner, and that his arrest of the county in which the man is convicted as an officio executioner.

Notables Pay High Honor to Pickett as Worthy Citizen
(Continued from page 1)
Quincy, III. Col. John R. Marshall of Chicago introduced him to Senator Shelby M. Cullom, then the senator from Illinois, who made him his messenger. He moved to Washington to begin a career which in his quiet, modest but wonderfully efficient way, was to wield a potent influence upon government affairs. He was also a member of his own racial group but of white America as well. No man of our Race holds office in the country, but a member that bodes even more effectively represented his people or watched their interests than did Charles J. Pickett. Respected, admired and beloved by many, he always was able to command their support. His 30 years of service in the senate made him such an authority on legislation that many a man named Charles "Charley."
Mr. Pickett might have been messenger in name, but in fact he was a secretary and executive for the men he served. Senator Cullom's right hand. Upon his death it was Mr. Pickett who had charge of all his effects and his financial affairs. After Cullom's defeat he was appointed to the Ireland of Illinois, leaving him to join the forces of Senator McKinley of the same state. When that golon died last year, Senator Deneen, the junior senator, called himself of Mr. Pickett's services.
**Familiar in Politics**
Mr. Pickett was a familiar figure in national campaigns. His wide knowledge of affairs and acquaintance with officials caused Senator Cullom to force, to choose him to be in close touch, while in Illinois campaigns he always was in command of activities at headquarters, being imported from abroad, and his influence and political strategy.
The Eighth Illinois National guard, the first unit to be federalized, reorganized and putment had planned to accept our troops in the future only as pioneer or labor outlaws. Senator McKinley advocated for the pickett make the decision in the matter after the Eighth had been ordered demobilized. Mr. Pickett saved them, and ever since the guard regiment American troops in existence to this self-affiliating, Race-loving Charles Pickett. Mr. Pickett was successful, owning a farm in Michigan, a significant farm in Maryland, nearby, where he was virtually king of his community, in which he was instructed to school and numerous other benefits.
Leaders in Tribute
Leaders in government and state affairs Wednesday paid great tribute to Charles Pickett, former secretary of the Interior, and clerk in the office of Charles S. Deneen, United States senator from Illinois, who died Sunday following an operation at Freedman's hospital, whose issues issued statements were: Robert S.

Years ago Castor Oil, Paregoric, Drops and Soothing Syrups were the remedies in common use for Infants and Children; Castor Oil so nauseating as to be almost impossible and the others all containing Opium in one form or another, but so disguised as to make them pleasant to the taste, yet really to stupefy the child and give the appearance of relief from pain.
It required years of research to find a purely vegetable combination that would take the place of these disagreeable, unpleasant and vicious remedies that from habit had become almost universal. This was the inception of, and the reason for, the introduction of Fletcher's Castoria, and for over 30 years it has proven its worth, received the praise of Physicians everywhere and become a household word among mothers.

and confidence of all who came in contact with him. Thousands will mourn his passing."
U. S. Congressman Martin B. Madison, the deacon of the White House, kindly gave the White House, for we all loved him. His kindness to his associates gave him a high place here."
Congressman Henry R. Rathbone: "The news of the death of the M. Pickett Jr. was one of the finest men I knew. Because of his splendid work and friendliness toward has associates, he will be greatly missed."
Oscar DePriest, Chicago politician and reality dealer: "Charlie Picketts was one of the most important politics as affecting 12,000,000 local American citizens. He was seldom in the forefront, but enjoyed a powerful influence in Washington circles that was spurred by all who had governmental offices and other interests".
He was a statesman in fact—a man of great experience in public affairs—and his passing is greatly to be regretted, particularly when his influence is so much needed.

SHRINES END SESSIONS IN NEWARK, N. J.
Chester Blake Again Named Potentate
By R. C. FISHER
Newark, N. J., Sept. 2,—Hundreds of delegates and visitors were in the city for the 25th annual convention of the Egyptian Order, Nobles of the Mystery of the Egypt, the 15th annual session of the grand court, Daughters of Isis, an auxiliary organization. The Shriners were the guests of Golconda Temple No. 21, the temple of the mortal services, held Sunday at the Bethany Baptist church with Rev L. C. Hurd officiating, marked the opening of the convention. Inspector general of the New Jersey National Guard, representing Governor Moore made the address of welcome. He was impressive in declaring that the times was no longer a dependent position on the hands of their women, who were molders of character, Dr. W. H. Braizer, New Orleans, imperial high priest and prophet of the shrine, relied on instructive and brilliant ideas.
High Potentate Talks
P. H. W. Ross, representing Mayor Raymond, welcomed the visitors to the city and was answered by A. A. in-chief, King David, secretary of Scottish Rite Masons, New York City. He declared that through education the salvation of the Race would be achieved. The high spot of Monday afternoon's session was the annual address of the imperial potentate, Caesar R. Blake, Jr., in which he made a statement of his views. He explained why the state of New Jersey had more incorporated organizations than any other state in this count. "It is a state that has been reasonably fair to its Colored citizenship. It is a state where officials have exercised the right of independent thought and action, and where the people have a real idea of freedom. Although a small state, it receives the highest respect from the nation and great political parties battle for her suffrage, and it has a strong solidarity of her people and organization. This should be a lesson to us and demonstrate what Race solidarity would do for us if we would re-enter the military until serving for the same objective."
Past incidental degrees were conferred upon Samuel J. Battle, detective of Medina Temple No. 18, New York City. Battle was also appointed to the office of imperial captain to fill a vacancy made by Charles Thorpe. Battle was ordered a serious automobile accident. Substantial sums of money were donated to the National Equal Rights Association and the N. A. A. C. P. by the Shrinkers.
Spectacular Parade
The spectacular street parade Tuesday afternoon was a beautiful array of vari-color garbed Shrirens, accompanied by several hundred women, all in uniform, as the procession was reviewed by city officials and officers of the imperial council. Competitive drilling by the several town officials held the ceremony, which was followed by a ball and reception in honor of the imperial council. Election of officers and a sightseeing trip, including a visit to Port Newark, to view the proposed site, concluded Wednesday's session.

Music Association Ends Annual Meet in St. Louis
BY MAUDE ROBERTS GEORGE
St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 2 — Charles of the concert as a pastime; Landcidel, personal representative of Rodman Wanamaker, was presented to the audience at the artist concert for music in wilt sented, in contests national and international. John Love president of the Robert, Carlis Ogden association of Philadelphia. Mr. Love pre-faced his introduction with a resume of the work of educational value from going into the museum. The employees of his store and told of the splendid impression that Mr. Wanamaker received when the convention was held in Philadelphia, thereby causing him to ask the co-ordinator of the organization in the prize awards.
Mr. Lansdale said in part: "I congratulate you in the name of Mr. Wanamaker for the wonderful community and our judges. We were incredibly surprised to know that there were so many, and this fact has shown me that even greater results will be achieved with a most pleasant duty to be here as Mr. Wanamaker's personal representative. It has indeed been a great pleasure to have heard this program presented at the centre evening. I congratulate you upon the wonderful development you have made in music, and thank you for your valuable assistance in the making of the maker is so pleased with the interest, spirit and inspiration gained that he will again offer prizes for the 1923 convention." Mr. Lansdale for the contest were Mr. Burley T. Burley M. Courhon, official organist of the John Wanamaker store, Philadelphia; Carl Diton; Samuel Lacier, music editor of the Philadelphia Ledger, John Wanamaker store.
The winners were: Wellington Adams, Washington, D. C.; Frank Tizel, New York, Harry E. Rush, New York, Harry E. Rush, New York, N. Y.; Hilton Hones, New York; Wesley, Howard, Washington, D. C.; Maude Dooledelete Renoir, Bouchier, Musa; Honore Houlm, Oliver Kannas, Monroe, McGee; Fred Grillin, Moore; Fred Grillin, Philadelphia; Mrs. C. B. Cooley, Touchy, Mason; Oscar Howard, Philadelphia; John Gray, Los Angeles, Cal., and George McGee. The welcoming program at Poro college was a brilliant success. The auditorium was filled to overflowing and the addresses of welcome were the national delegates and were made by the following prominent citizens of St. Louis: Mrs. Anne Malone, Jules T. Fields, representing George George D. Jones, Pearl Abernathy, George W. Dushner, Rev. G. Phillips and J. T. Clark. Mrs. Martha Anderson responded on behalf of the Association of Negro Musicians.
The musical program was very attractive and rendered by prominent musicians of St. Louis. The first performance was the Poro orchestra under the direction of James H. Harris. This orchestra is the expression of Mrs. Malone's interest in the development of the orchestra and the members of her institution and their training is given without cost to them. The success of this group is shown by the excellent reception the orchestra received at the East. The solist们 were Mrs. Olivette Smith, Miss Harriet Robinson and James H. Harriet, violinist. The St. Louis Young Ladies Glo club sang members and were given hearty audience.
The president, Carl Dilton, and the national officers were introduced, as well as a number of the chief officers of the church morning: Union M.

Molom; First Baptist church, Niceke, Jeans; St. Paul M. E. church, Maude Roberts George, Chicago; Metropolitan A. M. E. church, Theo Philadelphia, accompanied; Pleasant Green and Pine Bush Baptist churches, J. Wesley Bush and William Tremblede Baptist church, Annette Brondice White, Chicago.
President's Address
In the president's annual address he declared, "I am so beautiful a thing that it scarcely seems necessary to talk about it. And yet before it can come into its fullest appreciation the president will willingly to bear; it discussed; for everything has its economic side as well as its scientific or artistic side. "The appreciation of good music today should be much greater than it is, and it would be greater it more than it is. It would be more nomies. In other words, the public needs to be better informed along this line. Because of limited time, it is important to but three movements to the progress of which the public might signally contribute and bring music greater and fuller enjoyment.
"First, the direction of children, when highly gifted musically, into other professions and into other phases, is active." They are less fitted; the maintaining
of the concert as a tradition and not as a pastime: the practice of paying for music in the interstitution or intrabusition to impress upon the charitable side of the musician, which is still too prevent. It may not be believed, but music is liberally discouraging their children from going into the musical profession is still alarming, despite the fact that musicians are better off today than economic standpoint than ever before. "Perhaps the question has arisen: Are not medicine, law, business and education, aside from their financial interests, the answer is, obviously, 'Yes.' But if you wanted a house built, would you engage the services of a blacksmith? Or if you wanted your farm worked?"
"The point is that musical talent of a high order cannot best serve a community, a commonwealth, a music community, but can host contribute to an environment through musical cultivation. The Hebrew leads the world in business because by nature he is best suited to music. Negro, strange to say, is more musical than is anything else; and his greatest intellectual contribution, for that reason, if properly nourished, surely be music. That is, doubtless what is feared in the world today and partly explains the strong tendencies toward limiting the Negro musical activity alone to the singing of spirits.
Concert Raise Standard
"The second great factor in bringing about a greater appreciation of music is the concert tradition. There are concert promoters to put the concert on a commercial basis and raise money by means of it, and rightly so, because a concert promoter these days appears under his auspices. There are times, however, when only the artist reaps financial gain from a concert allowed to go on, just in such proportion will the concert decline; for the concert promoter will cease to work without remuneration. No one can afford to pay for a concert the public can save a valuable institution. It must cease to look upon the artist concert as a pastime, but as a necessity to the community, and not only must the concert be made financially a good investment, but it must be preserved because of its being peculiar to the community. The great artists. Take the concert institution away, and Roland Hayes, McMackern, Paderewski, Joseph Hoffmann, Galli-Curci, Kreisler, and others for which to live. Take the concert institution away, and composers would have to cease their work. Take the concert institution away, and composers for which to live. Take the concert institution away, and composers is unthinkable. Why, then, should we not only preserve the concert as an institution but hold it in our hands and patronize it far more than we do?
"Now to he third contribution the public can make in aiding the progress of music, perhaps the most important of all, because it doubtless is the one that encourages their children to take up music as a life work and why concerts have not been put on a better-paying basis—the nonpayment of fees, the lack of equipment they render. The reason that music is not a better paying profession than it is is due to the fact that there is too much free music. Everybody in the country can be procured freely is simply not going to bring in money. No more true is this than of music. And there is one certain result, and that is that the public services without remuneration and the public must cease exacting services of musicians without pay. Now, this does not mean that the free services should be highly trained for their work and are thoroughly prepared should never be sought, any more than those of a doctor or a lawyer. But if there is a need, should be expected to contribute in dollars the same as other individuals.
"Summarizing, first, by all means encourage those of your sons and daughters who are highly gifted musicians; hold; secondly, preserve the concert as an institution for producing great artists and composers to continue to inspire the world; and cense forthrightness and professional musicians. And now, in behalf of the association, may I thank you heartily for the splendid way in which you are co-operating in mag-

MASONS ROW OVER TEMPLE IN CAPITAL
Court Continues Case After Hearing
Washington, D. C., Sept. 2—Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy of the District supreme court continued the hearing of the motion filed by William L. Houston, a trustee appointed by the court, to foreclose on the unfinished Masonic building located at 10th and U Sts. N. W.
The hearing was continued upon the plea of Charles P. Ford, grand master of the Mont Worshipful Acacia Grand Lodge of Free. Ancient and Accepted Masons of the District of Washington, D. C., granted a reasonable time he would be able to raise a sufficient amount of money to pay off a trust of $6,600 held by the trustees and a trust of $6,600 held by Samuel J. Solomon, who is also a defendant in the motion to foreclose.
Bought at Auction
It was further alleged by Mr. Ford that in June last Soloman informed the grand lodge that he would be unable to complete the structure and build the building, but subcontract with a local builder, who would complete the building. Relying upon the representation of Soloman, he joined with him in informing the court that he would be ready to pay the $65,000 with interest due on the building.
Perfected Plans
Ford declares that on June 14 Solomon informed the grand lodge that he had perfected all necessary financial arrangements to arrange for the sale of $60,000 and a second trust of $10,000, which trust Ford declares was placed upon the property by Solomon without previously having been involved in the sale. The following day, Ford alleges, as a part of the plan devised for financing building operations, Solomon and his wife executed and recorded a deed of trust to the property to the grand lodge, subject to this trust. On the same day the grand lodge executed and recorded a deed of trust of $214,500, securing the property to the grand lodge, since the court directed the trusts to accept payment, Ford says the grand lodge has been urging Solomon to pay off the two trusts in order that the trusts be paid off. First, so that the companies could issue a guaranteed mortgage certificate. But Ford alleges that Solomon is improperly claiming to be entitled to the property, all of which would secure bonds under the grand lodge's deed of trust.

Judge Levine offered me a chance to see Daria, "You can go to Sing Sting," he said. "where you can see the passing ships and watch baseball games and the mountains." I might suggest that the mountain air is very helpful. Or you can go back to the workhouse. Or you remarked the prisoner, "you haven't yet mentioned the only place I want to go."
Judge Levine remarked that it was too late for that, and gave him an indeterminate sentence in the workhouse.
WRITES OF SLAVERY
Chapter No 19 of the life of Joseph Cannon (as written by his secretary, L. White Busby), who for 45 years was a member of the law firm of Cannon, which is now appearing serially in a Chicago newspaper, deals with slave traffic in Illinois. "Uncle Joe" Cannon, who died after having passed the age of 45, was informed of men of his day, in his reminiscences told his secretary of conditions from actual experience. He referred to the slave situation in the 1860s, prior to the War of the Rebellion, in which Owen Lovejoy, beloved abolitionist, who died for the cause of freedom, comes in for considerable mention.

SHERIFF AND ARKANSAS MOB LYNCH YOUTH
Wilmot, Ark., Sept. 2—The bloodthirsty southerners of this section forgot their promises to restrain from mob violence after the recent Little Rock lynchings and the Winston Pounds, Jr., 23, on an alleged charge of attacking a young girl.
Pounds peacefully surrendered himself to Sheriff John C. Kiley to deputy Paul Thursday when the posse-mob was led to 'Pounds' home by bloodhounds brought here from Mississippi. It is alleged that while the sheriff was in town, business and business men plans for getting the youth out of town to avert mob violence, two or three men jumped into the automobile containing Pounds and sped away. The police were not protected while the officers were in conference, it is alleged. Others stated that the sheriff went into a garage to 'talk' to the owner of the 50 men, surrounded the deputies with drawn guns and forced Pounds into one of their cars. The sheriff said later that he attempted to catch the man in which direction the prison had been taken."
Leave Body On Tree
Soon after Pounds had been taken from the car at the place which apparently had been agreed upon as the place to which the youth drove up. A rope was thrown over a limb of a tree near the bank of Bayou Barthomew, one end having been raised several feet from the ground. The mob, after enjoying the savagery for several hours, left the body suspended from the tree. The youth rushed to the tree until Friday, when it was cut down by R.C. Wells (white), a member of the coroner's jury, who said he would have to have a pocket knife handy. At the inquest held here no witnesses were called or examined and the jury found the crime to be Pounds 'came to his death at the hands of unknown parties.' Circuit Judge Turner Butler, who is holding court, said he had been heavily notified the lynching and he did not contemplate calling for any investigation.

Paris is renowned for its leadership in fashion lions, and surely more well dressed women are seen in this fashion capital than elsewhere in the world. Extreme simplicity, combined with grace and comfort is the keynote of Paris fashion. Elaborateness in clothes has been largely abolished and the smart woman to wear is the costume simple in line, color and ornament.
Dressmaking An Art
Paris has excelled in creative art for centuries and some of the finest and most famous examples of architecture, sculpturing and painting are housed in the city. It also claims that dressmaking deserves its place among the arts. There is indeed an indefinable quality in their work, but it is the result of more technique and patience. Perhaps there is really something in the atmosphere of Paris which is essential to the exercise of fashion, elegance, fancy and sound workmanship. Yet, in the modern sense it was in the days of Napoleon that Paris became the headquarters of fashion, and the city became one of the leading national industries. It furnishes employment not only for the dressmakers of Paris, but also the silk makers of Lyons and the robe makers of Grenoble.
The Rue de la Paix
Napoleon played another important role in the evolution of fashion when he opened and named for himself the street which, after his downfall, became the de la Paix (Peace St). This little street, which is about two of our city blocks in length, is veritably the center of the dressmakers, yet the street has boundaries in which it was originally confined. There is a continuous fashion parade along this street, for visitors from North and South America, East and every European country are attracted here as if by a magnet. It is along this street and the adjacent Rue de Rivoll, Rue Royale and Avenue de Opera, the center of the fashion district. One sees French women probably at their best in the morning, often smartly clad in "trotteur suit" or tailored costume, that shows an alliance of good taste and practical
Later in the afternoon as one passes the boulevard cafes, he sees a woman in a white hat, cage noir or afternoon aperitif, or strolling down the most beautiful boulevard in the world, the Champa Elysée, with her Polistes tucked in her dress and her sleek police dog. In the afternoon the costume has been changed again and the glorified French woman emerges usually of the same color and tone, but always in harmony, completed with a pocketbook and gloves to

Y OFFICIALS GIVE COLOR BAR SETBACK
Ask Another Chance for Excursionists
Detroit. Mich., Sept. 2.—The far-reaching hands of the activities of the Y officials for the betrement of young people was perhaps never better demonstrated than in their endeavor to uproot the disfavor sowed by some recent excursionists in the minds of the Put-in-Bay Chamber of Commerce, are debating the question as to whether low members of the Race to enjoy the pleasures and concessions offered to the public on the island.
According to accounts by authorities at the island, it was only recently that a club of Detroit folks made a pilgrimage to the island to give a picnic, and while there they committed every offense possible in violation of correct actions. So serious and vicious authorities say, a meeting was held by the Chamber of Commerce and a decision was reached that members of the Race should not again be ally to the other large assembly on the island. The Y officials, while searching for a place to carry their outing, learned from foes fast and immediate set to work in their concession outing at this resort. So convicting was their argument that the Chamber of Commerce is reserving temporarily their decision and welcoming a boat to the island, where concession on the island has agreed to remain open to entertain the group who, in turn, will strive to see that nothing occurs to quarrel the impression of the boat make on the Put-In-Bay authorities.
The trip to Fut-In-Ray on one of the islands would prove a serious loss to the Race

COLORADO NOW HAS NATIONAL RESORT
Our readers will be glad to know of a great national summer resort and playground located in the heart of the beautiful Rocky Mountain region, only 34 miles west of Denver, Col.
The resort, described as one of the most beautiful hills of national scenery in the country, bonits of cool, moist climate, miles of trout streams and lush meadows, a large inland lake and other desirable features.
Aire of all America, is interested to a place with such a name, the name of this great resort. Property in this wonderful mountain park is being bought by prominent citizens living as far south as Tampa, Fla.; as well as by residents north as Vancouver. The completion of the Moffat tunnel, which will be very soon, will bring five transcontinental trains through the site, giving the unexcelled transportation facilities.
The project, started less than two years ago, has already reached national proportions. Several thousand miles of railroad is predicted that the entire tract will be sold out in a very short time.

NEW YORK NOTES
By BILLY JONES
Mike Jackson is the composer of many song hits heard in public and on many of his numbers his name does not appear. The song that made the reputation for Mike Jackson was "I'll Come Back When the Elephants Moist in Trees." The song, "Crazy About Baby and Baby Crazy About Me," was sung in the Shuffle Along show, but under the title of "I'm Wild about Baby." Eileen Waters became known by singing Jackson's number, "You're a Fool to Get Mad." Mike Jackson is broadcasting his songs Monday nights at 9 p.m. from Station WMIG in New York. Birds finish their tour in Britain soon and then call for the continent before making a return visit to London. But Florence Mills will not be with the aggregation on their return engagement. She will rest up for four months, the time she will be under a doctor's care.
Billy Jones, the young radio singer, opened his engagements for the season last May. Mary McCormick, the singer of the new songs, "Keep Cool," and "You Only Want Me When I Lonesome," and his comed dog song number.
The Misses Eugenia and Madeline Kirkpatrick, 19th and 20th birthdays Saturday, Aug. 13 at their residence, 373 Woodward St, Jersey City. Billy Jones entertained with popular songs and Miss Mabel Kirkpatrick, 19th and 20th birthday, introduced the song, "A Dinner Was Served at 12 a.m. and the Guests Enjoyed themselves Immersely." and Johnson are at the Panties theater, Atlanta, Ga. The Exposition Four are at the Pantages theater, Salt Lake City, Utah. Bad Habits of 1927 Musical Comedy, Co. and Jones are at the Romona Park, Grand Rapids, Mich. The Four Couans are at the Pantages theater, Mansas City, Mo. The four couans are topping all bills in the valleyville houses up state and are scoring a big success. Their dancing is a big feature with this team, and they are now rated as a topnotcher to play in this season.
The musical comedy show, "Rang Tang," is maintaining a very good pace for a Colored show at the Royal Theatre, but they now gross over the $14,000 mark. Porter and Doyle are playing in and out of New York city and the act is a knockout. They expect to go to Want a good bass and first and second tenor for vaudeville quartet fifty-fifty proposition. You rehearse here and pay your own fees here. Billy Jones, 242 Lonox Ave. New York.
HARRY EIDDLER TRAVELING
Chicago turned out in large numbers at the Vendome theater last week to see the Harry Fidler. He was an unusual riot in the popular South Side theater and no wonder, he has been down the line, he is out of the room, and he is out of the entire day would be actors eager at. Harry knows the theory of the show business, he knows how to put it on his own screen and his personality to sell it well. He left this week on his long route which will carry him to the coast and back. He will be at the State theater, Eau Claire, Wis.; Sept. 4, 5, 6. Palace theater, Superior, Wis.; Sept. 7, 8, 9.

THE MUSICAL BUNCH BY DAVE PEYTON
Things in General
to blame when the clash comes between actors and orchestra, due to the fact that neither had time to rehearse. The impression is made that the orchestra is bad, which is very unfair to the players, so you see the more capable the players are, less capable the vaudeville house. The orchestra in the vaudeville house has the hardest job and should receive great credit and praise. They deserve it and making good and are fully qualified.
The orchestra in the picture house with its extensive library has the advantage over the vaudeville orchestra, which is more difficult to rehearse and prepare their programs. Nothing comes upon them without their having a chance to rehearse it before perishing. The orchestra's opportunity to take the parts home to carefully study them, giving the medicore player time to get the piece his finger is making, most of our Rue Clerc houses, most controlled by white capital, the Rue orchestras discolor the atmosphere that should prevail in the picture house. But the orchestra, although having all the above mentioned advantages.
During a death scene flashed on the screen you are likely to hear the orchestra's "C Hands, Here Comes Charlie" I blame the leader for this carelessness. He should watch his picture house and make his settings to harmonize.
Squeaks, squawks, means, groans and flutters are the sound features that make the concert orchestra so exciting. In evidence the band does not hit with the crowd. In the cabaret orchestra the "ham" musician finds a comfortable hearth. He doesn't have have be counted as a "trick figure" and will be applauded by the crowd, and you can hear different ones saying all around you. "Aln't that boy hoots at the crowd," the first class orchestra in these places that are made up of first class musicians, but as a rule most of them are unpopular of the high class of music the band plays out. The crowds seem to go where the "noise" is and I guess, after all, it is the crowd says that the musician orchestra today is what the leader is looking for the leader who is not versatile enough to give the crowd this kind of an orchestra will have to seek a more mature environment. The hip liquor tenter wants sensational noise. They have no consciousness of what real music is, and if you don't give it to them, won't patronize your place, so rings that. Let the box office ring.
Clarence Jones to Met. Theater
Clarence Jones and his orchestra under the direction of Jimmy Bell will open the season's contract at the Metropolitan Opera on Sept 14, replacing Sammy Stewart's orchestra. In the orchestra line-up will be 11 first-class enter-tees and 10 orchestra presentations prepared by a well known production musical expert. The orchestra will be under Jimmy Bell, whose experience along this line has been wide. He was at one time first violinist in the Metropolitan Opera, and under the direction of this writer, Jimmy is a natural born leader. More recent he has been the first chair in the Tate's Vendome theater orchestra.
Chirence Jones and his bunch have been at the Owl theater for many seasons and are recognized as ex-actors in real cinema house orchestra and with the augmentation of 11 players in a short time they will rank with the best orchestras in the country in the past. He is also a radio, broadcaster, his reputation extends from coast to coast as an efficient pianist. Many times this writer has said in this column that his popular pianist of the face, and again I say so. To hear him in solo work on the piano is alone worth one dollar. His coming to Chicago 10 years ago from the South, Chirence has made good. He is also a very capable composer the patrons of the Metropolitan theater have to some happy music times. Sent 14.
The Great Lakes Elks' lodge band, under the Crestion of Clarence musician Jake Musicianian, 208, last Saturday night at the lodge's home on S. Michigan Blvd. It was in the form of a sang party, with decorations and music, and a minute, President Biggs, responded with a short talk that rang into the ears of members and members of the ash tray and smoker's outfit in recognition of his invaluable service rendered the musicians of Chicago during his three years as a member of the beautiful hall was taxed to its capacity to do honor to the occasion. The Great Lakes band is managed by Clarence Musicianian, who is also the drum major with the band.

Types of Orchestras
In the great big orchestra field are four classes—the picture house orchestra, the cabaret orchestra, the opera orchestra and the dignified symphonic orchestra. In the wide field of demand each of these orchestras houses the masses of business, and if they are distinctive in their likeness, get the preference.
1
In my article the week I will try to review readers a brief outline of how Dave Povton composes of the orchestra compares with the other classes. In certain fields expert musicianship is required; in some fields the musician can probably play.
The Vaudeville Orchestra
The orchestra must give service in the vaudeville theater must be composed of class members unless a reputation and a standing with the best orchestras to that line. Their task is harder; they must possess a rare amount of skill, think and, above all, must have the average intelligence. It makes no difference whether the combination is small or small, the same tricks must be employed to fill the requirements. When the combination is small the men that combine it must be employed as soloists. In America there are many vaudeville houses with the small orchestras of three, four, five and six players, but on the larger circuits will find the larger combinations.
The orchestra in the vaudeville houses never gets the opportunity to perform it. It comes to them on Monday or whatever the house opening day is, and they have one rehearsal for the multiexercise performance. If the music is not played the orchestra gets the scorn of the performers and the bawling out from the house man-
Seat Musicians Required
To handle the vaudeville orchestra the very heat musicians should be given the highest class in this line. You don't know when you will be called upon to play a grand opera score, as any audience in a vaudeville quesue. I remember a woman who was the leader in a vaudeville house playing big time acts of both races, and a woman in a Cello, a German musician of no mean ability. He played the entire overture of "William Tell" on the orchestra, and the overture was wringing, we when the overture was finished, but they played it, and after it was over I would have been the result if the orchestra had been made up of medicore musicians. All of them were to accompany this master cellist.
The System
Ten or 15 years ago most of the variety houses changed their layout, and they gradually to change the system by giving the patrons two or three changes a week, until today the system is changed throughout the country have adopted the split week policy, which requires the orchestra to rehearse for each change, or show. Sometimes late in the week the orchestra hears, which works a handcap on the orchestra having to play the act by requiring the orchestra to play the same music as the orchestra, imposition. The listening public does not know and does not care who is

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
IN OLD KAYSEE
By CHARLES O'NEAL
Kansas City, Mo. — The biggest attraction of interest in this burg this week was the ten-round meters between Tut Jackson and "BILL" Goethe Monday night, Aug. 22, under the auspices of the Dundee Community club. Before an audience of over two thousand spectators, these two heavyweights swapped punches the same time. The action was furnished by Jude Moore of New York and "Dummys" Williams of Denver in the semiwilderness, jackie getting the shade, to an opinion in Lincoln Theater Tuesday night an uninteresting bill was seen. Three acts, composing the program with the photoplay. A home talent group, the songs and dancing that was very ordinary. Clara Campbell and Inez Saunders offered the numbers with Bus Moten at the piano. As we unwind, Horse" Williams, who played Monday, the opening night, and was canceled at the close of the show for reasons that would be better for him to explain himself in next week's
McCarver and Malone, two males under cork, made a nike hit with the 2012 season. Dunes. While conical in their makeup, these two genus were as immaculate in appearance as the majority of the other players. And Tyus, male and female team, gained a large hand at every turn by their original offerings. Their team scored a buildup-ease hit with brought laughs from the old as well as the young. The female number of this team scored a buildup-ease hit with the black bottom close was a scream. George Dewey Washington, styled as the white dramatic costume and the black bottom, returned to the Main St. theater for his third engagement in the past two months. Washington is the first Race Dunes brought back on a return at this house.
LINCOLN PERRY'S LETTER

I think it was just a reminder to him and some more of our professional wonders, and I am not the meanest think they can "treat 'em rough and make 'em like it." But it won't last long and never ends well; so let us all try and heed these wonders (shekls), now laugh "Ha! Ha!" (Goldie and his Black Bottomers is having wonderful success, but Goldie seems not to be excited because he has been so dorkly dorkly dorkly dorkly show is just a 50-50 proposition: "can cool him for that." Billy Tucker (the man of lice), can be found at the consolation side of his father's illness, but Billy has a resignation to fate in all that give hime a kind of a "I should worry, 'cause it can't be healed." that keeps him temporarily blinded, "I should worry, treasure in itself.
Well, Dave, I will close. Can't say all I would like to, but if I can't surprise the gang with something else, I won't. I can't do that for me as this picture is completed. I won't say how, because nothing's certain unless completed. But I think if we do well the things we need, we will take care of tomorrow, so thats that. Hope you don't feel hurt. Hai! Hai! Hai! Hai!

CHICK BEAMAN SAYS
The famous Georgia Minstrel opened their season Aug. 17, 18, lively theater, and, to a cell filled with judging and prizes, that greeted each song and joke, in our magnificent first part, we must claim a hit. The stage was staged by Iryce Richardson and it is one of the high marks of his efforts. His job was a strenuous one. Besides staging the numbers, he also arranged the vocal parts. Cincinnati turned out in masses despite the fact that we were unable to get a permit to parade or even attend. Our opening this season is entitled "Watermelon Time in Dixie." Instead of the old time circle, we have an animated back dron representing a watermelon farm. The entrance is made center stage through a Georgia mule, which we go through the setting being the interior of a watermelon. We are carrying six nine girls for the first time and they fit in well, as we did in minstrelsy.
Chick Beeman, Irvry Richardson, Frank Kirk, Miss Johanna Gay, Herrie Hlgus and Master Arthur Andrews, our mascot, were the guests at the concert. Mrs. Kimbrough was formerly Anita Wilkin, the popular song bird, whom we all remember in the big shows. Anita is living in retirement with two lovely country places, also a town home that is always open to many friends. Kimbrough, the husband is well known in the profession.
"AFRICANA" ON CLEANEST STAGE ON BROADWAY
Probably the cleanest stage in New York city today is right behind the National theater, which is housing Ruel Walters rapid revue, "Africanica." In addition to the polish the well-trained hands of the conscious jufton, "Africanica's" two masters of comedy, Glenn and Jenkins, contribute heavily to the element of cleanliness these murky evokers appear before their audiences, broomna in hand, and between them, a dusty air away the dust of the stage—quite effectively as they sweep away the blues of the theater's patrons. An audience through the flying feet of the Two Black Dots, Taylor and Johnson, and Mordieuau and Burham, whose dancing is an important factor in

This is one of the Races of the show, which Drake delivered a real show. One of the paramount features of the Drake Walker show is the jazz band, which is the feminine lead of the show and has made a fine reputation in the recording world. This week they are at the Palace theater, Norfolk, Va.

ACROSS THE POND
Bx IVAN H. BROWNING
London, England—Just as I am about to mail my items I note on the editorial section of the Defender an articles which says, "Don't be too hard on Josephine Baker for the little girl who marrys a count." I too, feel exactly as the writer of this article does about Miss Baker. I have read the different articles in the book with reference to Miss Baker. As a matter of fact I happened to be in Paris when the first rumor came out about Miss Baker's marriage and I remained in the papers it finally came out in the papers.
I hadn't been in Paris a day before I became aware of the fact that Miss Baker had many enemies, and with few exceptions they were among our friends, and no reason why they should feel as they do toward her. Of course, to a certain extent, I blame Miss Baker for allowing this rumor about her to go as far as to convince the white papers have given very little space in contradicting the rumor, while the Race papers have given two or three columns each, sent in by Mr. Rogers not only contradicting this rumor but also giving Miss Baker. The same has been done by Mrs. Diamond in the Courier.
Josephine Childish
Everyone who knows Josephine Baker must know that she of a kind was a man of many respects. It is this same childish disposition, odd manners, etc. that has made her a national icon. She has been accused of giving interviews and statements to press representatives and flooding country with the report that she had been accused of being very doubt very much the truth of this, for I have heard so many things, while she could probably have stopped this rumor, I think it unfair of the Race paper to dismiss it as they have. After all she isn't any worse than many others in her position would be under the same circumstances and
She may have been wrongfully advised, and they should be taken into consideration. However, she is not afraid to talk to her, the teacher, to take, and I am sure that writing articles against her will not make the matter any better, especially since it was her job to write them, that while all these rumors were firing around about her, Miss Baker was terribly annoyed by hundreds of reporters who did them yet to get rid of them, and she did not have long interviews with any of them, not even with Rogers, the man who has written a book, but who he really knew—a bad thing for any reporter to do.
I feel sure that many of Miss Baker's students have had their prayers answered, since they, like many others, feel that this affair will finish her career, but not necessarily so. Why should she not have written a book, and why should she commit a crime. If Paris does not want her, other countries are writing to see her and perhaps accept her for her talent and not worry about her
Mrs. Diamond Misinformed
The question asked by Mrs. Diamond concerning Miss Baker's mind being overworked by too few bananas or overstepping the bounds. I fear she has been misinformed about Miss Baker and would be enlightened if she would make a trip to Paris for proper information concerning this matter. What is there disgraceful in the fact that Miss Baker's husband is a Race man and the Race men have been Pullman porters at some time. Most of the white papers referred to Miss Baker's husband as being a Pullman porter, and the Race pupers have done the same. As a matter of information and interest to them is might be well to mention the Race men of Chicago, Mrs. Josephine Baker's (Miss Baker's) husband, is one of Chicago leading young citizens. He is connected with the political affairs of Chicago, and he holds a very important position there.
I feel that people should be just as proud of Miss Baker's success as an adult, not take her private affairs so seriously, whether they understand the in and outs or not. I have heard many cirrhitis of her appearance in the past, and I am sure she in her that spectacular review I simply looked upon her work and the work of the others as well, as the French to so, simply from doing so. I quickly realized that the French people are the most sincerely articulate in the world today, and being in Paris where unsuspecting people are the majority of those incomparable and marvelous revues did not cause me to look at them from a vulgar standpoint. People from other countries are full of them, until they go to Paris and see that the French people are not like themselves. Then they immediately say Paris is a terrible city, and those who have been there gladly return when possible. So, still those people who have never been in Paris live in hope of going and those who have been there gladly return when possible. So, still those people are only genuinely articulate.
Josephine Baker has almost been adopted by them and they have been responsible for her phenomenal success. She took the role of take her in allowing this rumor to go so far has not created near the excitement in France as it has in other countries, as they have realised the importance of her private nimbital affair.
Agrasea With French Papers
Milton Bronner (white) has written an article in the Press commenting on the success of his and success of Miss Baker and Florence Mills, and I agree with him when he says Josephine Baker is the dar- (Continued on Page 7)
THE JEST OF THE GODS
By SALEM TUTT WHITNEY
Oh, little brown girl!
Poor little brown girl!
At the lake, dark brink cold and
shinking.
Who holds you to shame.
But mislae the blame.
You're a joke of the gods I am
thinking.
Jove sanctioned your birth
To increase his mirth.
Fair Venus your form lent perfecte-
Sweet Hebe poured wine
From life's golden vine.
And Youth followed, like flame, the
injection.
Anteros, with fire.
Incensed your desire.
While from Cupid your lips had
their shaping.
Aurora, shiny.
Half dreaming drew nigh—
Brunched your cheek with the rose
of her waking.
Like whispers of love.
Soft coo of the dove.
Sudela the voice made entranc-
ing.
The gaze of the fawn.
Sunbeams on the lawn.
Terspilchere gaveerve to your
dancing.
Two chony seas.
World old mysteries.
Oh, your eyes they bewitched with
the luster!
Your colorful hair.
Brown glory was there.
Sealskin curls a luxuriant cluster.
Oh, beauty was thin!
Creative divinity!
Did I see when regret they conceived you?
Or just for a pun.
Gave you to the Sun.
What else even a leaflet to shade you?

Your skin's chestnut glow,
Like a spet, from a vile witch's

Decolve and allure,
And intrigue you to work your un-

And how could you know
How false was the show
Of the white god who came for you

When quenched his desire,
His love would expire,
And he'd cast you away like old

Playoff Certain Between Birmingham and Chicago for Right to Meet the East
PART 1—PAGE 8
The American Giants slipped into first place in the second half of the league race in the West and at by heating Birmingham, 5 to 1, and at this writing they are one-half game to the good with one more game to play with Birmingham.
- But because the Chicago team won Tuesday is no reason to believe that they have the second half in their grip—far from it—as Kansas City follows Birmingham here for one league game, then the Giants are idle as far as the league is concerned while the Black Barons are playing Memphis at Memphis three games, then Memphis at Birmingham four more and on the following week five games at the Cubans. The Giants but five more games after Kansas City leaves and those are with Detroit.
Memphis is weaker than at any time this season. Birmingham will be the league's best, but the schedule isn't firmed by the Tennessee team. Birmingham can claim all the seven via forfeit route and the president of the league would have
So it is pretty hard for Birmingham not to win the second half and get into the playoff with Chicago, who won the first half to win Atlantic City for the world title. The eastern club won the first half and are headed for the second half championship like a house after a fire on top by a few well-wishers.
In Saturnin's game Willie Foster emerged with a winner with a 4 to 2 victory in the Salmon. Johnson runs came in the seventh and errors sided them. Jim Brown was safe on Owens, but Willie Foster lobbied for Williams and singled. Miller ran for Bray. Foster poked a tikke like that bounded over Merlith's head, scoring J. Browne and Merlith's legs, scoring Miller and Foster and after Marlacher had stolen Jackson one last time, Merlith taking third after the catch. Davis hit to Robinson, who made a nice pice to McAllister, but Mac missed the throw and Marlacher at second. Owens to Merlith.
---
Chicago filled the basse in the first with two singles and a walk, but cooled in the score.
Birmingham but over the first run of the series in the fifth when Merilh dingled, stole second and scored on Owens' single to right.
Birmingham tripled to right center, Parnell fanned. Went out, Foster to Sweatt. Mac scoring. P. Williams beat out a hit to Russ. Thompson singled to beat Parnell. Russ hit Merilh and Harney took the mound. Miller threw out Merilh.

Sunday the Barons dropped a tough game. In fact they shouldn't have lost it, although Powell hurled well, and Gurley hit him with a visi singled. Russ singled, scoring Jackson. Rogers singled, scoring Davis and then the scoring should have stopped, but J. Brown fanned and Swiss missed as this strike hit him. He thinking it was all right, he picked it up and started for the visitors' bench. Swett went on to first to pick up his glove to play that position when he hit him up and yelled for Russ to come in which Russ did. There hadn't been any play on Swett and Swett was safe at first and Russ run counted. That was all until the seventh when Ward beat out a hit to Williams. P. Williams singled to center. Thompson sacrificed. Alexander went out. Powell to Swett. Owens hit Williams. Powell to Swett. Owens took second on a passed ball. Instead of the Giants walking Gurley, they pitched to him and Gurley delivered a single that Williams rumped home. Satchel struck out.
The Giants united the knot in the eighth. Jim Brown tripled. Polndexter relieved Streeter on the mound. Bryl batted for Swett and sent a long song to Ward. Brown scored after the end. Streeter had relieved Satchle in the home seventh after Davis and Russ had singled safely. Harney went to the mound in the ninth for the Giants.

YARBO TAKES LACING FROM WALKER IN 12
Stays Limit, However Against Champ

By WILBUR M. COOPER
Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 24—Mickey Walker, world's middleweight champion, named Wilson Yarbo, Cleveland, Ohio, 15,200 fans at Taylor Bank, but could not send the sturdy 160-pounder to the land of slumber, but you can not send it to the land of slumber, have taken what Yarbo did for 12 rounds and eat a square meal the following day. The tough mucker must have a cast iron stomach, concrete jaw and rubber nose, for he took at least 999 blows on each of the above regions, and that was in the third round to go through a battle like that and not feel the effects the following day. He had one chance to win and that was in the third round when he sent Walker down for a count of one, but he didn't follow his man up and that was in the fourth round to wipe the colwabs away. The main bout was delayed 20 minutes by a heated argument between Walker and the Newburgh Heights boxing commission. Hawkins demanded $2,000 for Yarbo end, but Promiser paid $1,000 for the boxing board stepped in and told Dave if he did not fight for $1,500 they would bar him from the local hall this indoor season, so Dave
The money was deposited with Commissioner Rose to be given to Hawkins. Dave has not received a red cent for Yarbo's services, so he has put the matter into the hands of Attorney Harry Gassaway of the insurance company. After the delay, Walker took his corner and received a big mitt, as did Jack Kearna, his highly perfumed detective, who by the way had been chasing the robber. Later escorted by Hawkins, Burt Stokes, Luther Wells and two private detectives, who by the way had been chasing the robber, many boys met Yarbo, but he smiled as usual. The weights were Yarbo, 162, and Wells, 160½ pounds. Gummer, 160 pounds, nor being knocked down for a count of seven in the first round stepped out and kayed Franklin Ward of Perlard, Conn. in the street. The boy, a stabmate of Wilson Yarbo, has "it" just like Clara Bow, only from a pugilistic standpoint. He is good enough to be a police officer, he let the ring. Both boys weighed 153½ pounds. Charles Mungle refused the bount, which was the first preliminary to the Yarbo-Walker

Big Bill Tate Is to Join Dempsey Camp This Week
Big Bill Tate, heavyweight, who put his last opponent, the Greek of their sleep, on the court of their home in Chicago or Jupiter is the latest addition to Jack Dempsey's training camp. Tate will be called on to do some training that gets serious. At present Leo P. Flynn, Dempsey's manager, is not going to let the former champion go stale. Atlanta City and the Defender predicted two weeks ago that he would be with Jack again. Another, who trained Jeffries for his bout with Jack Johnson and who has been with some of the greatest fighters of the last decade, did not get the job as rubber dumbbell. Dempsey's camp was thronged with visitors both Saturday and Sunday. Monday Jack played golf and Monday Tuesday he was not able to see him work out.

Our Mistake Thompson's Batting More About Langston-Mr. Huncke Quits
LAST week the standing as appeared in the sport pages was a bashing of Langston-Mr. Huncke, who was miningham won 17, lost 9, and the percentage .654, and the Barons in first place. Chicago with 22 won and 14 lost was camping in second place with a percentage of .611 instead of the wan and the Barons. Birmingham, to keep our readers from having any doubts as to the authenticity of the statement, has written that Langston-Mr. Huncke has and four from Memphis at Memphis. They won one from Chicago at Memphis and lost three, won four out of five at Memphis City, and one out of three at Memphis. They won three and lost one to Detroit, which includes the game in which Detroit left the field. We include this in the win column; otherwise notified the press.
This is done because of the um- pires's written report to President Obama, and we slide as we strike off these few words.
**THEREFORE** we calmly predict a play-between Alabama and Chicago and believe if Binghamton gets all that is in their men out of them, they should win the play-off. If Binghamton gets all that is in their shortstop, Chicago has some good pitchers and no one will deny that. So have the Blues, Barons and no one will deny that. Gatewood is piloting the Alabama boys and he is the team going in. We don't want to embarrass throughout the circuit, especially in Chicago, are puzzled over the sudden slump in the hitting of Thompson. We don't want to embarrass the club nor the player, but it does seem like Thompson is either in a slump against Chicago or clinkly against the Winder City team.
It would do the league a lot of good to have Birmingham win the playoffs, and to give new life in the league, but would encourage other teams.
Two years ago Kansas City went 7-1 in the first and lose the second world series. Last year Chicago won it.
We haven't a thing against either team to win, but we still citing to the opinion that the league would gain 40 per cent more momentum for the coming season for Birmingham to win.

ANGSTON is out after a post-season game with some formidable battles. We are trying to dicker with Lincoln university of Chester county, Pennsylvania. From Dr. Morrison, former Tufts University coach, comes the word that the Orange and Blue squad is not afraid of Langton. but the distance is the only obstacle. The team can get overeders can be arranged wheeby the team can get limbered up, and providing the faculty is willing, the game will be arranged. Since the letter arrived, Coach "Red" Moore of Knoxville college, Knoxville, Tenn. was a caller at our Knoxville plays Wilberforce. Wilherforce beat Langton in a post season tilt in 1925. 8. Should Knoxville win, the team will so accept Langton's defy to the world which looks to us like there will be a post season tilt of Christmas anyhow. we are still trying to boom it up.

THOSE who helped pass the boxing bill and those who have been supporters of the game long before it began, Mr. Huncke, of Oswald W. Huncke as boxing commissioner of the state of Illinois. His successor was appointed by the governor. A business man, believing in handling the boxing game in this state like he would his insurance company, Mr. Huncke invested, Mr. Huncke leaves, much to the regret of thousands and thousands of fans. His resignation sent to the governor last fall was not accepted, but a second one caused the chief executive of the state to act. Peggy Tunney fight caused Mr. Huncke to pen the second missive. He didn't believe it was living up to the law to attorneys who are not residents of the state to fight in championships or otherwise, and he wasn't the only one who had. But since the other two members of the commission saw fit to grant the promotion of the same, Mr. Huncke's vote was useless, so he sent his intention of wanting to get out again.
We give him credit—he has guts and strength—he sought by him, but instead he was caught because of his business ability. And we are not saying too much about him in honesty, square shooter and the faintest regret his passing from the scene.

BACHAR
ATLANTIC CITY MOST LIKELY TO WIN EAST
Bees Going Strong; Playoff Unlikely
Philadelphia, Aug. 29.—With the first half pennant already tucked away, dashing Dick Lundy and his Bacharach Giants are making a strong bid to wipe out the necessity of an elimination series to determine the champions of the Eastern Colored league. At the present time the Atlantic City team is in second place, a scant margin behind the Cuban Stars. However, the remainder of the schedule gives the Bees the advantage of playing most of their remaining games on their familiar home lot. While the Bees appear to be favored to cop the flag in both halves, a great deal of concern is evidenced within the ranks, due to the cripples on the sound. To begin with, Arthur
"Rata" Henderson, that stellar Richmond youth, who is a tower of strength to the hurling corps, is watching the proceedings from the sidelines, due to a sore arm. Without Henderson to take his turn in the box, the other clubs are taking more liberties with the Seashore team. The last game that Henderson pitched was against the Hilldale outfit at Atlantic City on Aug. 7. The team's crushing blow that has been den Tom Jackson's aggregation, Claude Grler, the southpaw hurler that burned up the Eastern circuit last season, reporting out his arm, and to date the former A. and T. schoolboy has yet to turn in a full league game. Only this, Hubert Lockhart and Roy Roberts have only been showing mediocre forms on the hill. But the lining to the dark cloud of the Bacharach hurriers comes in the left. Luther Farrell, these two hurlers having shown all that can be desired and their combined efforts on the hill are virtually keeping the team out
Both Hubbard and Farrell are excellent hitters and fair outfielders, and because of the added strength to the line-up he has added to the team. However with Henderson on the crippled list, Manager Lundy shifted his plans and now Hubbard and Farrell take their regular turn in the box and are relieved to see how they oftimes get into the line-up as pitchers.
While the pitching staff has wabbed, Dick Lundy, the Bees manager, has kept the team on the jump and they are playing a whale of a game on the defense and more lines to touch the pitchers pitchers. Another move that will add some strength to the Atlantic City team in its drive for premier honors, is the acquisition of Bert Wagner, the former manager of the Detroit pitcher. Wagner was somewhat involved with the Royal Giants and the Hillel team, but When Duncan Weekes, who is now carrying the brunt of the responsibilities for the team for the West Virginia youth, Wagner became eligible to wear the spangles of the Seahawk team. But, however, it is quite possible that Wagner will spend much of his time watching the game from the
The Bacharach infield has been playing smacky ball and working with the smoothness of a match. The Bacharach infield is playing the best ball of his career, and Manager Dick Lundy will need a machine gun to run him out of his job at short notice. The unfortunate point, is being looked after by Milt Lewis. The West Philadelphia boy, awkward and ungainly, has been fielding in consistent manner and hit the ball with great gladiators the heart of any manager. While at first base Morris Dallard is fast being converted from an outfielder to a center fielder, which is essential to every successful ball club, and the addition of Wagner will help the chances of the Bees.

ORGY OF HITS AND RUNS IS DAISY PARADE
Hilldale Tops Season Record With Win
Philadelphia. Aug. 25.—In an orgy of base hits and runs the Hildale team awnapped the Bacharach Gains in a one-sided tilt of 25 blings that totaled 40 bases that buried the Bees under a 22 to 12 score. Bizz Mackey was the biggest gun in the Hildale parade, the hefty backstop pounding out two home runs and a triple out of four times at bat, driving in four runs and scoring five. Hildale looked like the Wildcats' school boy, was the first victim of the Dalsies' batting spree, and before the smoke cleared away Manager Dick Lundy is on the hill. Lockhart aided the team in a session, and when he walked Stevens to start the second he was yanked and Roy Roberts went to the hill. Warfield greeted him with a single throw and seven runs before the side was retired.

Langston Plays Paul Quinn at Tulsa State Fair
Tulsa, Okla. Aug. 30—Tulsa is all worked up over the fact that an announcement is being made at Lansing and that Sam Houston college of Austin, Tex. will most likely be Lansing's opponent at the Tulsa state fair in October. The team is the best football team that Oklahoma can get, that early in the season. Tulsa as well as Muskegon is also worked up over the prospect that Oklahoma school that has never appeared in this section of the country. The sports editor of The Chicago Desert is deputized to get either Lincoln of Chester, Ia. West Virginia, Howard or Wilberforce. Kinville college has already sent him word that they are willing to meet for the date either Dec. 17 or Dec. 24.
Whirlwind to Assist Big Chief Aiken
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 30—"Whirlwind" Johnson, now manager of Aiken and, Faulkner rent department, has been lured from his recent decision to quit coaching and devote his time to real estate and has been induced to assist "Chief" Alken with the Crimson Hurricane. "Whirlwind," all-American halfback of Lincoln university, will coach the backfield and ends during his spare time.
David L. Gunn will again coach the kickers how to boot the ball, drop-kick and place kick from all angles of the field. Gunn is an all-American man from Hampton and was rated the best all-around booster in the C. I. A. A. in his time.
With two able assistants, "Big Chief" Alken will be relieved of much worrying and will work entirely
Atlanta university's teams have been conspicuous by their line play, and the team has been able to that the Howard Bison through running wild against other opponents have been able in two years to score 100 points. The Hurricane's line. This has been due to "Chiefs" ability to handle and coach the line. The Hurricane is not picked to win the conference championship, but the "Chief" is full of smiles, which means the team is not stuck in a stumbling block to many a would-be champion aspir. Three all-American men should make a splendid combination. The Crimson Hurricane's strong side.
All candidates will report Sept. 19 to begin their grind for the 1927 season, when the Hurricane has over faced. The regular eleven has been hard hit by graduation, January 19, 2017. Both tackles, Lamar and Filey, are lost to the squad, also Collium and Wright, ends, and Captain Yates, aback. The Hurricane squad will not be a rosette stream path. With nine regular lists to return, the Hurricane will be hard to make. At present it looks like "Filver" Ford and Slaughter of the all-American and the "Simp" Simon is the best player for a tackle berth. Clay and Jones will have no trouble carrying the ball. The Atlantic canain from the blue grass hills of Kentucky, with "Sugar" McPherson and "Fred," Jones should be the best player. There is no surety that the above-named will fill positions. Folkes and "Big Boy" Davis will make tackles not a fish when it comes to playing guard. Ramsey will be out there to make ends hustle, while Thornton and blackburn may prove to be hurricanes.
The schedule is as follows: Oct. 14, Alabama State Normal at Montgomery; Oct. 15, Alabama State University at Atlanta university; Oct. 29, Tallahassee college at Atlanta university; Nov. 5, Morehouse at Morehouse; Nov. 10, Morehouse at Morehouse; Nov. 14, Nov. 19, Nov. 24, Nov. 29, Marriss Brown at Atlanta university; Dec. 2, Tuskegee at Ponce de Leon; Dec. 9, Clark (homecoming game) at Ponce de Leon.

WINDY CITY GOLF KINGS INVADE EAST
Five to Try for Three Championships
Five members of the Windy City Golf association of Chicago—Walter Speedy, Robert Bail, Henry B. Johnson, Lawrence Friferson and Porter Washington—left by motor this week for Stow, Mass., where they will compete in the second competition for the national open golf championship of the United States, which will be played over the 18-hole course of the Mapleleaf country club Sept. 4 and 5. The Chicago boys are putting their faith in Ball, who won the Cook county open championship this summer, and Porter Washington, one of the most consistent of golfers. He was runner-up last year at the first national competition at Stow. He won the first city championship of our group ever played in Chicago, and Henry Johnson and Lawrence Friferson draw galleries wherever they choose to play.
The Stow finals last year was for the 19th seed, Harry Jackson, Washington, D. C. who won the golf crown for a year. He will defend his title this year. He will play at Westfield, N.

Sam Taylor Looks Over Clark's Men
Athens, Ga. Sept. 1—When Coach Sam Taylor calls his first 10 days from some 80-old candidates, he expected to answer. The outlook for the Red and Black is as rosy as ever for the White, who have a degree of merit can be molded. Only three men were by graduation, namely Nat Trammell, a half-hourly reporter; Shag Harris, a varsity quarterback; and Thirk Craven, a bulwark in the Chark forward wall. With the exception of three the entire team will win.
The Taylorites had the best backfield in Dixie last season, and the best defense in Jackson last season, he back this year. Squirt, one of Dixie's most brilliant full-backs; Snaky Beck, for the last two years; all-Southern halfback and one of the most prolific defensive players; Clinton Childs and Martin Dukes, two lightning-fast backs; Tolbert, Carter, Lewis, three steeling backs; Baker, a pawning wizard; Hal Chambers, who alternates at end and half with ease and a mighty line performer; Baker, a pawning wizard; Hal Chambers, who alternates at end and half with ease and a mighty line performer; were strong with all these backs; theypected new material is of a high caliber. Edgar Daniels is expected to try again and rumor has it that Jimmy Johnson, who was something of a puzzer, led teams last year, will not return, it is reported. This is merely rumor and nobody is taking it seriously. The Taylorites will be assisted Coach Charles Perris.

Knoxville Is Now After Langston Game on Dec. 24
Coach Rol Moore of Knoxville college, Knoxville, Tennessee, blew into the Defender office on his way south this week and after a half hour's conference he predicts a troublesome team for all of Knoxville's opponents. Knoxville has one of the greatest team in that section of the country and Moore is very anxious to take the team West, believing that they can step Langston, although he respects Williams Jones, Johnson, Doster and so on; they would be just to his listing and the date can be Dec. 17 or the 24th or Monday, the 26th. He understands that Langston is negotiating with Lincoln, and he believes that Knoxville gets through with Wil伯力er that the green and gold team will be out of the running.
Homesteads Win 2 From the Hornets
Pittsburgh, Pa., Aug. 25.—Another team has fallen a victim to the prowess of the Homestead Grays, local independent nine. The teams are the Cleveland Hornet, the Homestead Grays defeating them two games out of three played. The teams met in a single game on August 1, in which the Hornet won, 7 to 5. Grays' errors contributing to the downfall of the Posey-Walker aggregation. The Homestead Grays came back with a vengeance in the double-header and the Hornet won, 7 to 5. They were slut out in both games, Smoky Joe Williams emerging the victor, 2 to 0, in a game in which he yielded only three hits. Joe turred out, and the Hornet won his credit. The veteran was in race form, the Clevelanders not being able to do anything at all with his delivery. Only once did Cleveland lose too many chances when they had runners on first and second with none out. A lightning fast double kill killed their chances of scoring and thereafter Joe had them at his mercy.
out in the nightcap, beating the Cleveland team, 9 to 0. The Grays jumped on Pitcher Miller for five scores in the first inning. Some have ball netted the touch of the poor baseball netted the Grays their tulles. Miller got along finally until the eighth inning when the Grays began shelling four counterers over the rubber. Ryan was never in trouble and he kept the foes' hits well scattered.
Had the Grays fielded as well in the first inning of the series as they did in the closing events the Hornets would have received the same kind of treatment as the Lakers in the Homestead Grays a couple of weeks ago. The scores of Saturday's games follow:

Walk Miller Appeals to N.B.Ass'n
Bv FAIRDEAL
(Thomas Feature Service, N. V. C.)
Occasionally we read or a book, known for years as a feather flashed fellow and sudden laughter, and knocking the boys out. It is hardly necessary to add that the boys who can place them in the prone are the ones who have been knocked by Tiger Flowers, though not usually considered a K. O. artist, we find by giving the book a look, has scored more than 100 awards. For instance, recall that he was the first to spread John Wilson out in silent slumber, also first to be the first to speak to my Robbins. We find Lee Anderson also among his victims, Jamania Kid, Joe Lohman, Tut Jackson, Cleve McGee, Bill Britton, Dan O'Dowd, Jackie Clark, Sailor Darden, Jack Stone and Ted Moore. Several of these boys lasted the distance out when they faced Tiger in the big village, he speared them on the potato with neatness and effect. Looks like they have been fooling some place.
Another point, Tiger has probably put the caress caress on more folks of his own color than any man or present. He says if man descends from the monkey, some he fought are still descending, some he fought are still decision rendered in the ring and out, in which the Tiger, while apparently right in line for something, was left with the chickens outer skin. Curiously, he has now set out to fiddle in everything that faces him. For the past month he has put the damper on the blinding speed of his punch, and he has put the punch that is pure poison, according to Walk Miller. Miller announces that he has an agreement in all the states coming under their jurisdiction, until he fights flowers. He had also filed a $500,000 damage suit against Jack Keenan and Walk Miller in the ring or, probably both.
In the meantime, Flower is taking on light-heavies and heavies as fast as he can, and promises the folks who fare on first-cuffs they will see a letter, bashing Tiger in the future—than ever before. In the future, the boys sometimes come to grief when they develop the K. O. complex. In this manner only, does he think he can force himself into a life he can face, dodgers of the pugs playground.

SORE MUSCLES STIFF JOINTS RHEUMATISM!
This warm weather makes you want to get out, and do a heap of things you can't do in bad weather. But when you lumber up muscles and joints which have been idle for a long time, they are bound to become sore and stiff if they are saturated with the rheumatic poison which they have been accumulating. Some folks suffer the more serious effects of rheumatism, such as stabbing pains, swollen arms, legs and joints. But it is all caused by acid polens which the blood carries to the nerve centers, and the flesh, and leaves them there. The Liver, Kidneys and Bladder don't clear them out of the blood as they should. So you have to help them do it.
Dealers and drummists all over the country, in big cities and villages alike, are telling of thousands of people who swear by the prescription known as C-2223, because it helps them get rid of their rheumatic pains and suffering without having to wait forever. They have two sizes which cost $80 and $1.00 each. All you have to do is ask for Prescription C-2223.
